Helmets New Schuberth Helmet - Comm Ready

I bought a Schuberth a few years ago. I hope they are better now as I found the construction quality very poor. The sheild and Chin Guard would not stay up and were loose all the time. The mechanism for the sun sheild stopped working and I could not repair it. I communicated with the company in Germany and they did send me some parts but to no avail. However my chum was wearing one in a highway get off, and although he had the same problems I had it provided him great head protection. FYI

Good on you for being candid! Yours may be the first critical review of a Schuberth! :bow1:
 
I would rather give up riding (which isn't happening any-time soon) than buy another Schuberth (C3) for the following reasons
1. Bad design and day to day use (as said when flipped up both the visor and chin don't stay up for long)
2. Customer service is like talking to wall
3. EVERYTHING is just way to over priced
4. Was told like it or get over it

After I tried my helmet on in the shop for, I order one and 2 weeks later on the way home I just knew this was not the helmet for me. (And there is no where in the UK that will allow Schuberth "test rides").
Only after me buying the helmet and posting my experiences on a few forums did the people who hate Scheberth come out of the wood work.

Due to my rather helmet size I am limited on what I can buy.
 
I have not had mine too long, but my C3 has been good for me. I don't ride with the chin bar up so I can't speak to that. The visor is disappointing in that it does not stay up well at all. Other than that, I like it.
